Good to have some humor thrown in.

I couldn't get past the nonsense about not eating vinegar.

[nvsmom]

I agree. Funny except for the vinegar thing.

That was quite funny...even though I haven't experienced all of them yet. Love the video clips for each one! But I have to ask, what's the real deal with vinegar?

Only malt vinegar contains gluten. If you just see the word " vinegar" it can't be malt vinegar.

I actually loved the "I can't have vinegar" part. I know it doesn't contain gluten, but I can't have anything with yeast. (anti-candida) so no gluten free breads, no vinegar, etc. I interpreted it as her giving a small nod to the other food intolerances that often come with celiac disease due to leaky gut, but now that I went back and re-read it, I saw that she just threw it in and it seems out of place. 

 

To me, it was funny because just a week or so ago I actually said to my dad "I can't have vinegar!" when he offered me some potatoes/carrots covered in oil/vinegar at our memorial day picnic.
